Conditions of Sale 


1. Any bid which is merely a nominal or fractional advance may be rejected by 
the auctioneer, if, in his judgment, such bid would be likely to affect the sale in- 
juriously. ia 
a. The highest bidder shall be the buyer, and if any dispute arise between 
two or more bidders, the auctioneer shall either decide the same or put up for 
re-sale the lot so in dispute. 

3. Payment shall be made of all or such part of the purchase money as 
may be required, and the names and addresses of the purchasers shall be given 
immediately on the sale of every lot, in default of which the lot so purchased 
shall be immediately put up again and re-sold. 

Payment of that part of the purchase money not made at the time of sale, 
shall be made within ten days thereafter, in default of which the undersigned may 
either continue to hold the lots at the risk of the purchaser and take such action 
as may be necessary for the enforcement of the sale, or may at public or private 
sale, and without other than this notice, re-sell the lots for the benefit of such pur- 
chaser, and the deficiency (if any) arising from such re-sale, shall be a charge 
against such purchaser. 

4. Delivery of any purchase will be made only upon paymeht of the total 
amount due for all purchases at the sale. 

Deliveries will be made on sales days between the hours of 9 A. M. and 1 P. M., 
and on other days—except holidays—between the hours of 9 A. M.and5 P.M. - 

Delivery of any purchase will be made only at the American Art Galleries. or 
other place of sale, as the case may be, and only on presenting the bill of purchase. 

Delivery may be made, at the discretion of the Association, of any purchase 
during the session of the sale at which it was sold. 

5. Shipping, boxing or wrapping of purchases is a business in which the 
Association is in no wise engaged, and will not be performed by the Association 
for purchasers. The Association will, however, afford to purchasers every facility 
for employing at current and reasonable rates carriers and packers; doing so, how- 
ever, without any assumption of responsibility on its part for the acts and charges 
of the parties engaged for such service. ; 

6. Storage of any purchase shall be at the sole risk of the purchaser. Title 
passes upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, and thereafter, while the Asso- 
ciation will exercise due caution in caring for and delivering such purchase, it 
will not hold itself responsible if such purchase be lost, stolen, damaged or 
destroyed. 

Storage charges will be made upon all purchases not removed within ten days 
from the date of the sale thereof. 

7. Guarantee is not made either by the owner or the Association of the cor- 
rectness of the description, genuineness or authenticity of any lot, and no sale will 
be set aside on account of any incorrectness, error of cataloguing, or any imper- 
fection not noted. Every lot is on public exhibition one or more days prior to its 
sale, after which it is sold “as is” and without recourse. 

The Association exercises great care to catalogue every lot correctly, and will 
give consideration to the opinion of any trustworthy expert to the effect that any 
lot has been incorrectly catalogued, and, in its judgment, may either sell the 
lot as catalogued or make mention of the opinion of such expert who thereby 
would become responsible for such damage as might result were his opinion with- 
out proper foundation. 

SPECIAL NOTICE. 

Buying or bidding by the Association for responsible parties on orders trans- 
mitted to it by mail, telegraph or telephone, will be faithfully attended to without 
charge or commission. Any purchase so made will be subject to the above Condi- 
tions of Sale, which cannot in any manner be modified. The Association, however. 
in the event of making a purchase of a lot consisting of one or more books for a 
purchaser who has not, through himself or his agent, been present at the exhibition 
or sale, will permit such lot to be returned within ten days from the date of sale, 
and the purchase money will be returned, if the lot in any material manner differs 
from its catalogue description. 

Orders for execution by the Association should be written and given with 
such plainness as to leave no room for misunderstanding. Not only should the lot 
number be given, but also the title, and bids should be stated to be so much 
for the lot, and when the lot consists of one or more volumes of books or objects 
of art, the bid per volume or piece should also be stated. If the one transmitting 
the order is unknown to the Association, a deposit should be sent or reference 
submitted. Shipping directions should also be given. 

Priced copies of the catalogue of any sale, or any session thereof, will be 
furnished by the Association at a reasonable charge.

“The Iconography of Manhattan Island represents the result of a two- 
fold purpose: to collect, to condense, and to arrange systematically and 
in just proportion, within the confines of a single work, the facts and 
incidents which are of the greatest consequence and interest in the 
history of New York City, with special reference to its topographical 
features and to the physical development: of the island; and to illustrate 
this material by the best reproductions obtainable of important and 
interesting contemporary maps, plans, views, and documents.’’—author’s 
preface. 

This work is to completed in four volumes. The above two (Vols. I 
and II.) all that have yet been published. These two volumes cover 
the first period, that is, from the time of the second voyage of Ves- 
puccius, in 1498, until the report and plan of the Commission of 1807, 
which sounded the death-knell of the old city.

hard consist of the scenic plates and the views of the localities, which

skipp, who, to distinguished ability in his profession, unites the pate

(ii) to the general public, who are designated Generous Soules. The 
play was published, during the suspension of theatrical performances, 
for the benefit of the two principal actors at the Blackfriars. This is 
the play to which there is the following curious reference in the book- 
seller’s Preface to the folio of 1647: ‘One only Play I must except (for 
I meane to deale openly); ’tis a Comedy called the Wild-Goose Chase, 
which hath beene long lost, and I feare irrecoverable; for a Person of 
Quality borrowed it from the actors many yeares since, and (by the 
negligence of a servant) it was never return’d.’ This ‘person of quality’ 
may have been the ‘Person of Honour’. mentioned in the title above 
given.’ ”*—HvUTH CATALOGUE.

[1553 | 


The title-page and the two final leaves are in facsimile, with this ex- 
ception a FINE COPY OF THIS MOST RARE WORK. 

It is Tindale’s version, Jugge’s revision, and is the second quarto edi- 
tion of Jugge’s revision, the first having been issued the previous year 
(1552). The date is not printed in the volume, but it is generally be- 
lieved to be 1553, the first year of the Almanack. “It is undoubtedly 
subsequent to August 1552, since the Table at the end allows for only 
one Communion on Easter Day.” 

THE PRESENT COPY IS PROBABLY UNIQUE, CONTAINING AS IT DOES A CURI- 
OUS PRINTER’S BLUNDER AT MATTHEW XI. where the large woodcut repre- 
senting Christ upbraiding Capernaum, IS INVERTED. 

A very interesting feature about this edition is, that in one of the 
woodcuts (that of the parable of the Sower (Ciiii) THE DEVIL IS REPRE- 
SENTED AS HAVING A WOODEN LEG. The title-page contains a portrait of 
King Edward VI.

One of several editions printed by Barker during 1684, all of which

ing. Manuscript dated, 1635 


In 1624 Nicholas Ferrar, who had been closely connected with the 
Virginia Company, seeing the evidences of the coming struggle between 
Charles I. and parliament, retired to Little Gidding in Huntingdonshire, 
with his brother John, his brother-in-law John Collet, and their families 
and there established the “Arminian Nunnery,” and entertained an in- 
genious bookbinder who taught the family, females as well as males, the 
whole art and skill of bookbinding. ‘Mary Collet, a niece of Nicholas 
Ferrar, was one of those instructed, and was one of the most proficient of 
these “Nuns oF LITTLE GIDDING,” as specimens from their bindery are 
now designated, and which are among those highly prized by bibliophiles. 

In addition to binding in the familiar embroidered manner, she bound 
volumes “all wrought in gold, in a new and elegant fashion.” We ven- 
ture the opinion that the above manuscript was written by her sister, 
and the volume bound By Mary CoLtet.

Magnificent specimen of contemporary binding, without question exe- 
cuted by a master-binder. THE QUALITY OF THE WORKMANSHIP IS SUCH

“Tt deals with wrongs done the people by enclosures, with the advance

allowing one-tenth to the crown, points out various social objects to 
which the remainder should be devoted.’-—DicTIONARY OF NATIONAL BrI0G-

With the author’s death at Naples, September 14, 1771, the title of

OF MARYLAND, to Henry Harford, a child. 

“In 1769 he printed at Augsburg ten copies of a book entitled Gaudia 
Poetica Latina, Anglica, et Gallica Lingua composita. It forms a yolume — 
of 120 pages, BEAUTIFULLY PRINTED, AND RICHLY DECORATED WITH HEAD AND 
TAIL PIECES. It consists of a Latin poem translated into English and 
French, with some smaller pieces, and several letters which had passed 
between him and Linnaeus, to whom he had dedicated the volume. lLin- 
naeus had been so much flattered by the dedication that he refers to 
the book in extraordinary terms of eulogy, and designates it as an ‘im- 
mortal work.’ Baltimore also published Caelestes et Inferi, Venice, 
1771, 4to.”

LARGE PAPER. 

The Kit-Kat Club was an association instituted in 1703, in the time 
of Anne, consisting of noblemen and gentlemen favorable to the succession 
of the House of Hanover, and whose ostensible object was the encour- 
agement of literature and the fine arts. The Club derived its name from 
having met for some time in the house of Christopher Cat, a pastry-cook. 
The Club was dissolved about 1720, in the reign of George I. Amongst 
the Portraits are those of the Dukes of Somerset, Richmond, Grafton, 
Devonshire, Marlborough, and Jacob Tonson, the publisher and founder 
of the Club, to whom the portraits were presented by the members.

LarcE Paper copy. This is the first issue of the famous illustrated 
edition of Milton, published by Tonson in honor of his acquiring the 
copyright of Paradise Lost. He was excessively proud of his acquisition 

.and left no means unemployed to commemorate the event. 

The folio contains a portrait of Milton and 12 full-page plates. Robert 
White, the best engraver of his time was employed to engrave the por- 
trait of the poet, which is a noble example of his skill with the burin. 

The designs for the 12 illustrations were the masterly conceptions of 
Sir John Baptist Medina, and were engraved on copper by Michael Bur- 
ghers, in his usual satisfactory manner. 

It is interesting to note that these first conceptions have been adopted 
by all subsequent illustrators. To be sure, there may be a slight change 
here and there, but the underlying idea of Medina has been almost 

‘ slavishly followed. 
Tonson, to further promote the glory of the edition, employed Dryden 
to write the superb verse, which is placed beneath the portrait,— 

“Three Poets, in three distant ages born, 
Greece, Italy and England did adorn. 

The First in Loftiness of thought surpassed, 
The Next in Majesty; in both the last. 

The force of Nature coud no longed goe: 
To make a third she joined the former tio.” 

At the end (the proper place), will be found the list of subscribers. 


This is generally, in error, placed by the binder in the first part of the 


book.

[1834-1835 ] 


AN IMPORTANT MANUSCRIPT BY THE AUTHOR OF “THE RAVEN,” MOST 
BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN IN HIS EARLY ScRIPT. It is complete to the end 
of page 16, ending with “the citizens of Rotterdam in spite of’ and 
commences again “Far away to the Northward I perceived a thin, white 
and exceedingly brilliant line or streak,’”’ with about three quarters of 
the balance of the story, with the ending “Your Hxcellencies very humble 
servant, Hans Phaall.” P 

The title is written in the middle of the page in large and bold letters, 
with a verse beneath, which has been crossed out with extraordinary care. 
A strong glass however reveals the following,— 


“With a heart of furious fancies 
Whereof I am commander, 

With a burning spear and a horse of air, 
To the wilderness I wander.” 


This manuscript was found among the papers of Rear Admiral Melancton 
Smith, uncle of the present owner, Miss Deborah B. Martin, on his death 
in 1893, and has since that date been in the possession of the present 
owner. Admiral Smith’s aunt, Mrs. Mary Jones Osborne of New York, 
was an intimate friend of Mrs. Clemm and knew Poe well. It is the 
opinion of the owner that her uncle obtained the manuscript direct from 
either Mrs. Jones or Poe himself. The words “A Tale by Edgar A. Poe,” 
seem to have been written in by him at a somewhat later time than the 
title of the story, possibly when the author presented the manuscript to 
his friend. 
The above is an early, if not the first draft of the version which 
appeared in the Southern Literary Messenger, 1835, for July 20, 1835. 
Poe, in writing to the editor of the Southern Literary Messenger said, 
“Look over ‘Hans Phaall,’—in No. 10, and see if you have not miscalcu-

lated some due me. There are 34 columns in all. ‘Hans Phaall’ cost 
me nearly a fortnight’s hard labor and was especially written [rewritten] 
for Messenger.” 

-As is well known Poe was obsessed on revisions of his own works, 
and a little later wrote of this work—‘First part faulty—I have often 
thought of remodeling it entirely.” 

The Manuscript is the Property of Miss Deborah B. Martin of Green 
Bay, Wisconsin, where Rear Admiral Melancton Smith lived, after he 
retired from the service.

THICK or DUTCH PAPER, with a wide outer margin, giving space for

Franckfurt an der Oder, 1704: 


This translation into German of the Book of Common Prayer was made 
under the following circumstances, as detailed at large in the Life of 
Archbishop Sharp of York, 1825. Vol. 1, pp.403-449. The Psalter and 
other Scriptural portions are in Luther’s version. 

“Frederick, K. of Prussia, had found it necessary, for the greater 
solemnity of his coronation in 1700, to give the title of bishops to two 
of the chief of his clergy, the one a Lutheran, the other a Reformed. 
The former died soon after; whereupon the other, viz. Dr. Ursinus, con- 
tinued without a colleague, and with the title of bishop. Since that time 
the King conceived the design of wniting the tivo different communions 
in his Kingdom, the Lutheran and the Reformed, in one public form of 
worship. And, as he had a great respect for the English nation and 
Church, and held a good opinion of the Liturgy of the Church of Eng- 
land, he thought that might be the most proper medium wherein both 
parties might meet.” 'The persons who were most instrumental in this 
design were Dr. D. E. Jablonski, the Court chaplain, and Bishop Ursinus. 
By their advice the King ordered the English Liturgy to be translated, 
and, this done, he commanded his bishop, Dr. Ursinus, to write a letter 
in his name to the Archbishop of Canterbury to acquaint him with what 
had been done, and what was intended, and to ask his Grace’s advice 
about it. And two copies of the Liturgy were sent, one for her Majesty 
the Queen, and the other for his Grace. Her Majesty, on receipt of her 
copy, ordered Lord Raby, her Minister at the court of Prussia, to return 
her thanks to the King and to the Bishop; but the other copy, and 
the letter designed for the Archbishop of Canterbury, were not delivered 
to him, and the more unfortunately as they were assured at Berlin to 
the contrary. And as, therefore, no answer was received from the Arch- 
bishop, the King, after frequent inquiries, considered it as a matter of 
neglect and abandoned his purpose, and thus fell to the ground what 
might have proved a barrier to the influx of Neologian error, as well 
as an increase of the influence of the Church of England. Is THs THE 
MISSING COPY? -

: Paris, 1508 

Purchased many years ago from- Bernard Quaritch, the following 
description taken from his catalogue,— 

“FXXCESSIVELY RARE. First printed edition of any part of the actual 
text of the Bible in French. (It is not necessary to make an excep- 
tion of the Penitential Psalms alone, which had recently appeared.) 
Neither Brunet nor Panzer ever saw a copy, but they both give the title 
to which Brunet adds the following remark—‘Panzer a rapporté, d’aprés 
Gesner, le titre de ce livre rare que nous n’ayons jamais yu.’ To this 
significant statement I may subjoin another, that I have had only one 
copy besides this one in my possession (in 1884), and that there was 
none exhibited at the Caxton show of Bibles in 1877. With regard to the 
text, there is nothing to indicate who was the translator. All the 
biblical books which had been printed in French before this one were only 
paraphrases or abridgments from the Bible History of Peter Comestor.” 
The orthography is sometimes curious, as for example yawes for eaua, 
lowes for lowez.”

speare. Printers device on title. 12mo, new boards, old writing on 
verso of last leaf (blank portion). 
London: Printed for J. Tonson, 1734 


The above and the six following “spurious” plays were the first pub- 
lished in the Turrp FoLio edition of Shakespeare, 1664, but not in the 
earlier issue of that folio, with the date 1663. They were also included 
in the FOURTH FOLIO issued in 1685. With the exception of ‘Pericles,” 
modern authorities are almost unanimous in agreeing that Shakespeare 
had little or nothing to do with the composition of these plays, which, 
nevertheless constitute a very interesting feature of Shakespearana and 
are essential to all collections of that designation. 

Of “Pericles,” Shakespeare, as Sir Sidney Lee tells us, contributed 
Acts III. and V., and parts of Act IV., “which together form a self con- 
tained whole, and do not combine satisfactorily with the remaining 
scenes.” Many good critics have claimed “The Yorkshire Tragedy” as 
one in which Shakespeare had a hand. It was first printed in 1608, 
during his lifetime and with his name on the title-page as the author. 
“Sir John Oldcastle’ was issued in 1600, also with the name of Shake- 
speare on the title-page; whilst “Thomas Lord Cromwell,” and “The 
Puritan,” appeared respectively in 1602 and 1607 as by “W. 8S.” 

Ail the original quarto issues are excessively rare, very few copies 
having survived. The “Spurious” plays were edited and annotated in 
the Supplement (vol. 11) to Johnson and Steevens’s edition of Shake- 
speare’s Plays, 1780.
